The solution

You have entered [src]
   2   
sin (y)
$$\sin^{2}{\left(y \right)}$$
sin(y)^2
Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. Apply the power rule: goes to

  3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

    1. The derivative of sine is cosine:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  4. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
2*cos(y)*sin(y)
$$2 \sin{\left(y \right)} \cos{\left(y \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
  /   2         2   \
2*\cos (y) - sin (y)/
$$2 \left(- \sin^{2}{\left(y \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(y \right)}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
-8*cos(y)*sin(y)
$$- 8 \sin{\left(y \right)} \cos{\left(y \right)}$$
